anikki was brought up from a very early age by her father while her sister was raised by her mother. nikki spent a very small amount of time with her mum and sister when she was about 6 years old, but soon after contact stopped when communication broke down between her parents. she never felt she wanted to find her family while she was growing up. but now with a husband and a son, she decided it was the right time. nikki didnt know where to start, but her husbands mum had used 192. com for finding people before and recommended it to her. with the help of her son, she started by searching for her sisters full name on the electoral roll (选民登记册) without a location, because she had no idea where she lived, even her date of birth. from that one search, the site returned two results listed in the area they used to live. nikki decided to call the first number. to her absolute surprise, it was her long lost sister! so after 20 years, it was one phone call that helped her contact her sister! her sister then passed her number on to her mother, who called nikki straight away, and it was like they had never been apart. her mum was so glad to find out nikki was well that they arranged to meet everyone that saturday (3 days after the phone call) where she was reunited with her sister and met her two nephews for the first time. nikki also found out she had a half (同父异母的) sister and brother. when talking about the reunion, nikki said, 192.com made finding my long lost family very easy. i was not on any social networking sites before and surprisingly neither was my sister or mum, so we would never have found each other that way. nikki will be spending her first christmas toghter with the other side of her family this year. 21. the text is mainly about _. a. how to find a family memberb. a wonderful christmasc. how important the electoral roll isd. a family reunion thanks to 192.com22. what did nikki know about her sister before her searching? a. her address. b. her birthday. c. her name. d. her telephone number. 23. what can we learn about nikki from the passage? a. she knows much about the internet.b. her sister has not got married so far.c. her mum got birth to four children in all.d. she got in touch with her mum on monday. beach new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap. some call it the summer learning setback. simply speaking, it means the longer kids are out of school, the more they forget. the only thing they might gain is weight.most american schools follow a traditional nine-month calendar with winter and spring breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation. some schools follow a year-round calendar. they hold classes for about eight weeks at a time, with a few weeks off in between. the national association for year-round education says there were fewer than 3,000 such schools at last count. they were spread among forty-six of the fifty states.but many experts point out that the number of class days in a year-round school is generally the same as in a traditional school. lead researcher paul von hippel said, “year-round schools dont really solve the problem of the summer learning setback. they simply spread it out across the year.” across the country, research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the summer than other students. experts say this can be prevented. they note that many schools and local governments offer programs that can help.but calling them summer school could be a problem. the director of the summer learning center at johns hopkins,ron fairchild,said research with groups of different parents in chicago and baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term summer school. in american culture, the idea of summer vacation is connected to beliefs about freedom and the joys of childhood. the parents welcomed other terms like summer camp, extra time and hands-on learning.24. according to the first paragraph, the summer learning gap _a. helps children to gain weight b. leads children to work harderc. improves childrens memories d. affects childrens regular studies25. which of the following statements is true?a. students from poor families often fall behind after the vacation.b. year-round schools can solve the problem of the learning gap.c. there are schools in each state following a year-round calendar. d. nothing can help the students who fall behind after the vacation.26. why did almost all parents dislike the term summer school?a. they attach importance to the childrens rights of freedom very much.b. they are worried about the quality of the summer school. c. they want their children to be forced to make up the gap.d. they cant afford the further study during the vacation.27. what would be the best title of this passage? a. opening summer campsb. forbidding summer schoolsc. spreading year-round educationd. minding the summer learning gap care you happy? do you remember a time when you were happy? are you seeking happiness today?many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness. some have put their hearts and efforts into their work. too many have turned to drugs and alcohol. meanwhile, untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, exotic(异国的) vacation homes and other popular toys. most of their efforts have a root in one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness. unfortunately, i believe that happiness escapes from many people because they misunderstand the journey of finding it. i have heard many people say that, ill be happy when i get my new promotion. or ill be happy when i lose that extra 20 pounds. it is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a response to having, being or doing something. in life, we all experience stimulus(激励) and response. today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus, and happiness is a response; a great paying job is a stimulus, and happiness is a response. this belief leaves us the thinking and feeling: ill be happy when it has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. i believe that happiness is a stimulus and a response is what life brings to those who are truly happy. when we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work. when we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships. when we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. happiness is not a response but a stimulus.happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives. for unknown reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time. happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want -we usually get things we want after we choose to be happy.28. from the second paragraph, we know too many people _.a. are not happy when they work hardb. are not happy when they drink or take drugsc. are happy when they possess their own expensive carsd. all desire exotic vacation homes29. from the viewpoint of the author, which of the following is the most important if you want to be happy? a. success in work b. feeling happy c. losing weight d. an expensive car30. which of the following is right according to the author?a. most people today are happy.b. if you want to get what you want, you should first choose to be happyc. work is a necessary part in our daily lifed. we should try to get more and then well be happy.31. from the viewpoint of the author, happiness is _.a. limited b. out of reach c. unconditional d. based on our needs dmore than one in 10 people living in britain were born abroad, a record level, new figures show. the proportion (比例) of the population that is foreign-born has almost doubled in the past two decades to 11 percent, or 6.7 million people. at the same time, almost a quarter of babies born in england and wales have foreign mothers. this is also a record, according to the office for national statistics.the figures indicated that, in 2008, some 11 percent of the population was born oversea, up from about 8 percent in 2001 and 6.7 percent in 1991. figures are not available for 1997 when labour came to power but, based on trends, the figure is likely to have been just over 7 percent. a key factor has been the increase in migrant(移民) workers from poland, lithuania and six other eastern european countries that joined the eu in 2004.the number of eastern european nationals living in britain has risen sharply from 114,000 in 2001 to 689,000 last year. more than a tenth are children. according to the study by jil matheson, britains population is on course to pass 70 million in about 20 years. she said projections (预测) based on past demographic trends (人口趋势) suggest a 17 percent increase in population over the next 25 years. to hit 71.6 million by 2040.it currently stands at 61.4 million and ministers have insisted that the landmark 70 million total will not be reached. the study is further evidence of the way in which labours immigration policies have changed the make-up of british society.sir andrew green, a government adviser, said, “immigration on this scale can only add to the pressure in our society and on our public services. these figures confirm the great influence of mass immigration on our society.”32. what mainly caused the foreign-born population to rise sharply in britain?a. native british didnt want to have babies.b. the british government encouraged natives to give birth abroad.c. too many foreigners went to britain to work.d. native british went to eastern europe to find jobs.33. whats the proportion of the babies in england and wales who have native mothers?a. about one quarter b. about three quarters.c. about a half. d. about one third.34. the underlined “on course” in paragraph3 can best be placed by_a. impossible b. hard c. certain d. likely35. whats andrew greens opinion about mass immigration?a. britain will benefit a lot from it.b. it will make britains population much smaller.c. it will have negative effects on british society.d. it should be encouraged.第二节
